Deposed Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi 11
By IBRAHEEM HAMZA MUHAMMAD
One of the wives of the deposed Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II, arrived Awe earlier in the day.
She arrived at 11:15 am with three of the deposed Emir’s children.
She arrived in a white Infiniti SUV with tinted glasses. She was escorted by mobile policemen and officers of the Department of State Security who were conveyed in two Toyota Hilux vans with Kaduna State Government number plates.
The security operatives on duty opened the gate and allowed them access into the compound.
Daily Trust gathered that the Emir of Awe, Alhaji Umar Isa Abubakar; Chief of Azara, Dr Kabir Musa Ibrahim and Chairman of Aee, Alhaji Umar Da-Akano are meeting with the deposed Emir.
It was also gathered that the building is being guarded by no fewer that 30 heavily armed security personnel.
Sanusi was banished to Awe after being dethroned by the Kano State Government on Monday. (Text, excluding headline, courtesy of Daily Trust)
